Name Meaning

French: habitational name from Autry, the name of several places in Allier, Ardennes, and Loiret, or Autrey, the name of several places in Haute-Saône. This surname is virtually non-existing in France. Compare Autery , Autrey , Awtrey , and Awtry .

Alternatively, perhaps an altered form of French Audry: from the Old French personal name Audry, from ancient Germanic Aldric, composed of the elements ald ‘old’ + rīc ‘power’.
